The breakfast
The hotel lists its breakfast as exceptional — and guest feedback backs that up. It is one of the most consistent points of praise across 168 reviews. If breakfast matters to your morning, this is a property worth knowing about.
Patio and outdoor space
A patio with outdoor furniture gives guests a proper place to sit outside. It is a small but useful feature for Oaxaca's warm days, and the kind of detail that makes a hotel feel less like a transit stop.
Room standards across the board
Every category — from the Deluxe Double to the suites — comes with a king bed, air conditioning, slippers, a bathrobe, and extra-long beds over 80 inches. The bathroom includes free toiletries, a hairdryer, and a private shower.
Activities arranged from the desk
The tour desk can book walking tours, bike tours, cooking classes, and local culture tours — most at an additional charge. Temporary art gallery visits are also available off-site. Oaxaca has a lot on offer; the desk helps guests structure it.
